The condition of things In Enter
prise Is deplorable, according to their
local paper. It says: "It is certainly
time that the muyor and common
council of Enterprise call a halt to (he
lawlessness that Is being practiced In
our city. It is almost au everyday oc
currence for someone to get beastly
drunk and parade the streets, cursing
and disturbing everybody and every
thing iu and about the town. A town
the size of Enterprise, the county seat
and metropolis of the great Wallowa
valley, being without a marshal to
keep the peace, is certainly a disgrace
and an outrage."

ing and that the Mining Journal was

was refused and now the sheriff is
suing the couuty for the amount due
for the publishing of the roll.

A Letter From Asia.
(Albany Democrat, Jan. 21.)
A letter dated Nov. 25, received by
Mr. Jus. Marks this week, tells of the
safe arrival of Rev. and Mrs. Cavender
at their missionary field of labor at
Lakawn, Laos, Asia.
The trip was the longest any mis
sionary has to. make to reach their
field of labot. They were much pleased
with the looks of the country, but
especially the mountains. They look
more like home than anything else.
The trees and flowers and fruits, every
thing, in fact, is different. The houses
are not quite Americanized. The river
is very large, or rather wide, but the
farther up the shallower it had gotten
until they had stopped on the sand
bars sx or a dozen times the last day.
Sometimes they would stop and take
a walk on the bank, sometimes with
their shoes and stockings off, wadeout,
and end up the evening by a bath in
the river. Some of the sunsets are
beautiful, hardly describable. The
wild flowers offer nothing to beat
America. They anticipated bananas
and pineapples, hut ouly cared tor one
kind of oranges. Among their narrow"
escapes was from the explosion of a
bottle of ammonia, the striking of
a rock that nearly upset the boat. At
Lakawn they have a lovely house,
much better than they would have
thought of having at home. They
vtere to take an elephant ride to Ching
Mai, a four weeks' trip, going as the
guests of Mrs. Dr. McKeau. They had
gone the rounds and found every one
lively, and were surprised to find
everything so nice.
One of Mitchell's Lobbyists.
A dispatch from Port Towuseud,
Wash., reads as follows:
By tiie steutner Alki the news conies
that a great number of people in
Alaska are highly exercised over an
announcement recently made to a
favored few to the effect that ex-U. S.
Marshal Orvllle T. Porter, of the dis
trict of Alaska, Is not to be prosecuted
a charge of embezzlement under
which he was indicted several years
ago by a TJ. 8. Grand Jury. Several
ineffectual attempts haye been made
in Alaska to bring Porter to trial, but
excuses on account of sickness have
thus far saved him. Now the infor
mation comes that TJ. 8. Attorney
Bennett has been instructed by the
special agent at Washington to dismiss
all proceedings against Porter.
It is rumored that this actiou Is a
result of the efforts of Senator John H.
Mitchell, of Oregon, on whose recom
mendation Purler received his appoint
ment during the regime of ex-Presldeut
Harrison.
Porter has been in Salem during
the entire session, lobbying for the
re-election of Senator Mitchell.
Last Monday Neil Q'Hare, of May-
ger, appeared In the courtroom in St.
Helens before A. N. Clark, justice of
the peace, charged with selling liquors
ti less quantities than one gallon, he
having a government license which

gallon or more. It was charged that
he sold 15 cents' worth of liquor, but
ihere were no witnesses to prove the
charge, and the court, after hearing
all the testimony, dismissed the case
and assessed the costs, amounting to
$76, to Hie private proseootor, George
It. Wagner.

He Was On The Warpath.
(Sunday's Hcrnld.)
J. W. Patterson, of Scio, who was
elected constable on the populist ticket
In June, and was appointed deputy
sheriff by Sheriff Gaines, was In Al
bany yesterday searching, he said, for
an escaped convict named Pepperlin.
Patterson evidently did not search
in the right place, as by noon he was
howling drunk and was soon after
lauded iu jail. He wore a big six
shooter buckled about his person, and
standing in (he Russ House waitinp
room he posed as a bad man with
blood In his eye. He addressed the
dozeu or so men present in drunken
abuse and flourished his revolver ahout
In a threatening way. The bystanders
quickly got out of harm's way and
Mr. Kowell telephoned for an officer.
Acting Marshal Williamson was at.
the depot, aud Sheriff Gaines came to
take charge of the offender. He fought
like a madman, but with the aid of
H. F. Hulburt lie was disarmed ami
hustled off to jail.
